Every living, breathing MALVEAU in America comes from two brothers who were once slaves of Jean Baptiste Malveau, a frenchman

Jean Baptiste Malveaux I

Laurent Malveaux

Their mother Catherine MALVEAUX

Many of their descendents intermarried with relatives on my paternal grandmother AND grandfathers side of the family over several generations. Here are a few:

Christoval MALVEAU married Marie LACHAPELLE(grandmothers aunt)

Rayfield MALVEAU married Olivia EDWARD(grandmothers sister)

Jean MALVEAU married Sidonie SAM(gg grandfathers sister)

Jean Louis MALVEAU married Elisabeth Rosalie SAM(words still out on whether or not she is my BLOOD relative. There is an association because her father, Pierre and my ancestor Louis were owned and freed by the same man)
